I have a bunch of great logo tee-shirts but they’re cut for men and I don’t like the way they fit, so today I’m going to show you how to mod your t-shirts into a flattering shape that you’ll actually wear.

Thanks for such an easy to follow tutorial. I’ve had a selection of boy cut tees for years, but never had the confidence to modify them. That’s all changed now! My first try has been a success, now I can’t wait to mod the rest!

That’s so great! We’d love to see pics in the CRAFT Flickr pool!

Hi,
Came across this via Make and I passed it onto my wife. She promptly ripped up an old t-shirt to practise, and then went on and fixed up a couple more to make them fit much better.
So I wanted to drop you a big Thank-you, Becky! This is a simple, elegant, and very useful project. The hardest part for most people is probably the serger requirement.
Best wishes
